Outfit: Magda Butrym x H&M Oversized Wool Blazer ($219) Magda Butrym x H&M Transparent-Strap Mules With Rose Appliqué ($219)
"As someone who runs her own clothing brand and is a shopping editor, I live for a good designer collab — and let me tell you, this one nailed it. Every piece screams Magda Butrym in the best way possible. I own more oversize blazers than I care to admit, and this one quickly became a top-tier fave. It's not too thick, not too thin – making it perfect for the confusing spring weather. Whether you're going full power suit or just throwing it on over a bodysuit and some tights, it just works.
The blazer is wool, so if you've got sensitive skin like me, you might feel a bit of itchiness around the neck. Also, if you're petite (I'm 5'2"), definitely consider sizing down. The fit runs large, and while I love a bit of drama, I was slightly swimming in this blazer. The padded shoulders add some serious structure, so sizing down will help keep it chic and not too boxy. That said, the length? Chef's kiss. It hits that sweet spot — not too long, not too short.
And can we talk about the shoes? I'm obsessed. The pop of color from the flower adds such a fun twist and softens the whole vibe to an otherwise all-black look. Walking-wise . . . let's just say they're more 'stand and be admired' than 'run through NYC streets to catch a cab,' as the single PVC strap doesn't exactly lock in your foot. But hey, beauty is pain — and these babies are worth it." — Balim Tezel, updates editor, Shopping
